The fisrt Villa picture that I'bve posted here was quickly identified, the second one resulted to be impossible. Now I try with this third species, bigger and darker than previous. Even, I'm not completely sure about genus identification.

Well, this one was photograohed yesterday, in a hot day at Pe?aflor, Zaragoza, NE Spain, at 300 meters and in a zone of steppe-lands dominated by Retama sphaerocarpa, with patches of Pinus halepensis. It was in flowers of Gypsophila struthium ssp. hispanica. Wingspan about 20-23 mm.







Can be identified to species level?

Thanks a lot.

In Northern Europe this could be named as V. venusta with reasonable confidence, in Spain a big ? needs to be added.
